FUNDING TERROR: Rockefeller Brothers Fund Gave Millions to Terror-Tied Extremist Groups in 2025

From the Washington Free BeaconThe Rockefeller Brothers Fund (RBF) has spent millions of dollars in 2025 supporting an array of anti-Israel groups, several of which have ties to terrorism abroad and extremist activists in the United States, a Washington Free Beacon review of the organization’s grantees shows.

The RBF in April of this year awarded a $135,000 grant to 7amleh, the “Arab Center for Social Media Advancement,” under the umbrella of “Peacebuilding.” The organization describes itself as an advocate “for Palestinian digital rights,” creating a “safe, fair and free digital space for Palestinians.”

Its leadership, rather than a list of notable peace activists, consists of several people who have promoted violence and one with ties to terror.

Ahmed Qadi, 7amleh’s “monitoring and documentation coordinator,” also served as an officer at Al-Haq, a group the Israeli government has designated a terrorist organization. The State Department sanctioned Al-Haq in September over the organization’s engagement in “efforts by the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute Israeli nationals, without Israel’s consent.”


The report also notes that Mohammad Badarneh, a project coordinator for 7amleh, praised Hamas’s Oct. 7 massacre in Israel in a Facebook post, writing, “The only valuable and important duty for a person living under occupation is the extent of his resistance to this occupation — by all means and methods.”

The lengthy Free Beacon report shares a long list of chilling examples of the groups’ connections to terror, all being financially supported by the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.

On the X account for the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, a description on the profile reads, “The Rockefeller Brothers Fund advances social change that contributes to a more just, sustainable, and peaceful world.”
